6 branding mistakes made by new designers

Along these same lines, when creating a logo don't forget that it's only one piece of the overall puzzle. Make sure it fits in with the rest of your brand as a designer, for a consistent image across all channels. Your brand encompasses not only your logo and brand colours, but also the voice you use in your copywriting, the images you choose to post on social media, and even the font on your blog. Watch every detail carefully to be sure that these all follow the same basic design as your logo, for a stronger brand.
